In the past, children with undiagnosed sickle cell disease were at risk of dying in as little as nine hours of sepsis. In this episode of Bringing Sickle Cell Disease to Life, we hear more from Kyle, an individual living with sickle cell disease. Dr. Wally Smith interviews Dr. James Eckman about the importance of newborn screening. Dr. Russell Ware explains his decision to care for individuals living with sickle cell disease and to start research in this area. Learn how hydroxyurea transformed children’s lives and the stepwise approach used in developing clinical trials to treat children with this disease.
